Preorder To Get Final Fantasy XIII-2 Download Content? http://zotaku.com/2011/10/04/preorder-to-get-final-fantasy-xiii-2-download-content/ http://zotaku.com/2011/10/04/preorder-to-get-final-fantasy-xiii-2-download-content/#comments Tue, 04 Oct 2011 11:41:03 +0000 zenical http://zotaku.com/?p=17152 Square Enix is going all out to make Final Fantasy XIII-2 a great game, offering download content (DLC) for folks who preorder.

Three of the retailers: Amazon, Gamestop and Bestbuy will be offering you some goodies when you preorder with them. Amazon’s giving you boss Omega whom you can use in your party once defeated. Gamestop is just offering Serah a special costume, while Best Buy preorder entitles you to a hardcover book containing “Final Fantasy XIII -Episode i-,” a novella connecting the stories of FFXIII and XIII-2.

While it’s good to get Omega in your party, having a physical book for collection is also cool. I foresee many diehard fans getting 2-3 copies of the same game just for the preorder bonuses!

The NA release of the game would be out on 31 January 2012.

Battlefield 3 DLCs Appearing 1 Week Earlier On PS3 http://zotaku.com/2011/09/25/battlefield-3-dlcs-appearing-1-week-earlier-on-ps3/ http://zotaku.com/2011/09/25/battlefield-3-dlcs-appearing-1-week-earlier-on-ps3/#comments Sun, 25 Sep 2011 04:01:56 +0000 guuzen http://zotaku.com/?p=16887 Battlefield games have always been compared to Call of Duty games and there are [...]]]> The previous few Battlefield games have always been compared to Call of Duty games and there are thousands of forum threads containing the tired argument of which one “owns” the other. Now EA has given everybody yet another reason to do so.

All future DLCs for Battlefield 3 will be released 1 week earlier on the PlayStation 3 before Xbox 360 and PC gamers will be able to get their hands on them. It is inevitable to feel that this is EA’s way of getting back at Activision for the timed exclusive releases for Call of Duty on the Xbox 360 and it is probably their intention as well. 1 week is 1 month right?

The first DLC ‘Back to Karkand’ (included in the pre-order bonus) will already be getting this treatment.

Sackboy Gets Heavy Rain Makeover http://zotaku.com/2010/06/09/sackboy-gets-heavy-rains-makeover/ http://zotaku.com/2010/06/09/sackboy-gets-heavy-rains-makeover/#comments Tue, 08 Jun 2010 17:08:16 +0000 guuzen http://zotaku.com/?p=7286 Your favorite cute little Sackboy is once again getting a new set for its ever growing wardrobe. This time, it is from Heavy Rain.

With these costumes, you can finally make your own “Jason!” level come to life! Looking at the picture, you can dress up as Ethan, Jayden, Madison or Shelby. You can also wear an origami hat! If you look at the origami hat closely, you can see that Media Molecule has replaced the blood with “jam”. Remember, LittleBigPlanet is rated “E” for Everyone so NO blood please! I actually like it a lot, because I thought it somehow fits the game really well.

You can get these costumes now from the PlayStation Store! Here are the prices taken from IGN:

The pack bundles outfits for Madison, Jayden, Shelby, Ethan and an origami figurine and costs a grand total of $5.99 (€5.99 / AUS $ 8.45 / NZD $9.50).

Lost Planet 2 DLC Hits This June 3 http://zotaku.com/2010/05/30/lost-planet-2-dlc-hits-this-june-3/ http://zotaku.com/2010/05/30/lost-planet-2-dlc-hits-this-june-3/#comments Sun, 30 May 2010 07:43:27 +0000 zenical http://zotaku.com/?p=6898 Been playing Lost Planet 2 these past few weeks. I already completed the campaign mode, only tried multiplayer mode a few times. Don’t really like the maps since I’m not familiar with the surroundings D:. Capcom is releasing more LP2 DLC for us this June 3. Two maps are due to be out as part of the Battle Stage Pack 2: Dockyard Battle and Frozen Wasteland. Dockyard Battle is a factory that appears in Episode 4 of LP2’s campaign mode. Frozen Wasteland is from the first Lost Planet.

Dockyard Battle

Frozen Wasteland

Dockyard Battle is a hell confusing map with lots of walkways. I got lost when I was playing through it in the campaign mode, but after playing through the campaign mode many many times, I know my way around now :D.

Battle Stage Pack 2 is priced at 500 yen and 400 Microsoft Points on the PS3 and Xbox 360 respectively.

Also hitting the LittleBigStore at the same time, The Incredibles Level Kit, featuring a Gallery Level filled with memorable landmarks from The Incredibles, prize bubbles containing all the materials used to make it, and masses of other collectibles. Stretch and dash your way across the rooftops of the city, investigate the more secret parts of the Parr family home, explore the jungles of Nomanisan Island, where Syndrome’s base is located, before taking a trip on his monorail system into the heart of the base itself.

Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition is Gold Indeed http://zotaku.com/2010/01/17/resident-evil-5-gold-edition-is-gold-indeed/ http://zotaku.com/2010/01/17/resident-evil-5-gold-edition-is-gold-indeed/#comments Sun, 17 Jan 2010 00:30:33 +0000 zenical http://zotaku.com/2010/01/17/resident-evil-5-gold-edition-is-gold-indeed/ While I am not hyping much for the first additional DLC which will be available on the Xbox 360 on February 17, and on February 18 for the PS3. Following that, the second DLC episode will be released on March 3(Xbox 360) and March 4 (Ps3). The Gold Edition of the RE5 game will be out for sale on March 9. The cover of the Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition is extremely awesome. Gold indeed!

Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition is Gold Indeed

Sheva gets bumped off the cover, and Jill Valentine replaces her on the cover, alongside Chris. Nice. This cover is smoking hot that I want to purchase it. :D

Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition has the original game and add-on content, on PS3 and as a DVD with download voucher for Xbox 360. You can purchase the game over at Play-Asia, but I am lacking of funds to buy one myself T_T. Of course if I plan to purchase the game again, I would be buying for the additional episodes and not for the alternative costumes >_>

LittleBigPlanet Water Update and Pirates DLC Soon http://zotaku.com/2009/12/14/littlebigplanet-water-update-and-pirates-dlc-soon/ http://zotaku.com/2009/12/14/littlebigplanet-water-update-and-pirates-dlc-soon/#comments Sun, 13 Dec 2009 16:30:04 +0000 zenical http://zotaku.com/2009/12/14/littlebigplanet-water-update-and-pirates-dlc-soon/ Christmas is around the corner – no we won’t get snow in LBP, but we can expect water to hit Sackboy’s world soon.

The 11 trophies as seen on PS3Trophies showed us that we will be getting some Pirates of the Caribbean DLC, and include the water update. Of course they will, how can the pirates sail without some water? ;)

Here are the 11 trophies you can earn soon:

Bronze
• PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN Booty Master – Collect all of the PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN prize bubbles
• Beast Slayer – Destroy the KRAKEN boss
• Ace Port Royal – Ace Port Royal
• Ace Pirate Town – Ace Pirate Town
• Ace The Frigate – Ace The Frigate
• Ace Cursed Bay – Ace Cursed Bay
• Ace The Kraken!!! – Ace The Kraken!!!
• Tributary – Publish a level containing WATER
• Salty Dog – Complete 20 community leves that contain WATER

Silver
• HMS Interceptor – Complete the race in Cursed Bay with at least 4000 points left on the clock
• The Bends – Achieve a Score of 7000 in the Diving for Treasure Survival Challenge

Joystiq reports that the Pirates of the Carribean DLC will be available before Christmas. As such, I’m thinking that we’ll get our water action before Christmas. It took Media Molecule 1 year to give us another level pack (In 2008, we got Metal Gear Solid Level Pack)

Can’t wait. If the DLC comes out before Christmas, I will be so happy ^^.
